Statistical Considerations of Correlating

SOME CARCINOGENS ARE POSITIVE IN SALMONELLA THE SETS OF CARCINOGENS AND MUTAGENS DO NOT EXTENSIVELY OVERLAP. 

To estimate this true correlation requires some understanding of what constitutes this set of carcinogens. It is beyond the scope of this chapter to review the appropriateness of interpreting the results of animal testing in terms of possible human experience. If it can be assumed, as Lijinskyand Com-
